Staging highlights the property's best features, transforms spaces, demonstrates the home's potential to buyers and makes the home look & feel fresh. We want to make sure our clients are getting the most out of their investment and truly believe staging a home is a necessity to do so! Making your home appealing to buyers through furniture and design, allows for buyers to envision living in the space, seeing how fluid the space is and will most likely produce multiple offers & will generate top dollar. For our occupied properties, we arrange furniture, remove unneeded items, organize spaces and bring in many of our own staging items to give a bit of a design facelift. For our vacant properties, we will highly suggest hiring our preferred professional stagers to stage main living areas with trending & high quality in style furniture and decor.
As part of our service to you, we will be there every step of the way going above and beyond to make sure everything runs accordingly.
To ensure a smooth transaction, and to get to the closing table all of these items should be maintained until the house is closed.

All offers received will be presented in a timely manner and explained in easy-to-understand terms. The typical under-contract period in the current Denver market is about thirty days, but this can vary based upon the negotiation and terms of the contract.
The higher the price, the better the offer, right?” Not always! Price is not always the determining factor when accepting an offer for many reasons: the initial offer is oftentimes negotiated, and there are a number of terms and conditions that will most likely influence the final outcome of the price. You can trust our professional guidance to help you thoroughly evaluate every proposal without compromising your marketing position. The negotiation process can feel over-whelming (and exciting) so having someone helping you make the best decision is pivotal! We take the ethical responsibility of fairly negotiating the contract terms very seriously. You may even have to deal with multiple offers before getting to a final suitable contract – and as your agents, we will provide a thorough and objective assessment of each offer to help you make the right choice.
A fully executed contract is when all parties have signed the original offer or counter offer. This is a legally binding contract between a potential purchaser and you as the seller.
Within the offer, the buyer agrees to put an amount of money down, known as earnest money, (amount typically determined by seller and listing agent), to show they are serious buyers and will be wired to the title company within 3 days of going under contract. The earnest money will be held in an escrow account pending the fulfillment of conditions, deadlines and contingencies within the executed contract.
Title company is typically selected by seller and listing agent but is determined within the contract. The title company holds earnest money, orchestrates all closing documents and examines/insures clear title to real estate. After researching the complete recorded history of your property, they will certify that:Your title is free and clear of encumbrances (eg. mortgages, leases, or restrictions, liens) by the date of closingAll new encumbrances are duly included in the title. Issues title policy/coverage to buyer for property prior to their ownership.
The seller’s property disclosure is a form that is used by the seller to disclose information about the property that the seller has knowledge of. By signing this form you are acknowledging receipt of this information. I will ensure the inspector has a copy of this prior to the inspection. These are things known to the seller – you should do your own investigation on anything that is of concern to you.
The initial measurement is for the purpose of marketing, may not be exact, and is not for loan, valuation or other purposes. If exact square footage is a concern, the property should be independently measured prior to the Inspection Deadline. I have a list of Inspectors I recommend if needed!
Seller is to disclose identification of the source of potable water (tap, well, other), identification of any permits, augmentation plans, and other water-related information.
The lead-based paint disclosure form is a required form to be issued to all potential buyers for residential properties built before 1978. The forms were written to warn any new owners of the potential existence of this within the interior walls of the residence. See disclosure here.
Now that you have an accepted an offer and have a fully executed contract, you and the buyer will be given a timeline to mark every stage in the process of closing your real estate contract.
Meeting the requirements on time ensures a smoother flow of negotiations and also ensures that each party involved is not in breach of their agreement. During the process, we will keep you updated so you will always be prepared for the next step. Your communication during this phase from contract to closing is extremely crucial to this process.
Buyers will have the opportunity to have an inspection completed of the home. As the seller, you are not able to be present for the inspection so please plan to be out of the home (along with family members and pets) and have the property "show ready." You will need to leave any manuals, receipts and documents you have pertaining to the home on the kitchen counter.
Buyers will have the property inspected by a licensed property inspector within the timeframe that was agreed upon within the accepted contract to purchase. Some buyers will have several different trades come the property after the initial inspection to obtain professional opinions and bids.
If the agreement is conditional upon financing, then the property will be appraised by a licensed appraiser to determine the value for the lending institution via a third party. This is done so that the lending institution can confirm their investment in your property is accurate. A buyer of a commercial property may also have a complete environmental audit performed and/or soil test if required by the lending institution.
If Buyer has a lender, an appraisal will need to be completed. We, as your listing agents, will meet with the appraiser and request for the home to be show ready.
Either a title company or an attorney will be selected as the closing agent, whose job is to examine and insure clear title to real estate. After researching the complete recorded history of your property, they will certify that:
1. Your title is free and clear of encumbrances (eg. mortgages, leases, or restrictions, liens) by the date of closing.
2. All new encumbrances are duly included in the title.
